The number of constraints and variables in our formulation is linear with respect to the number of circuit components and hence our algorithm can efficiently find the optimal solution for industrial scale designs. To the best of our knowledge our method is the first exact gate sizing algorithm that can handle cyclic sequential circuits. Experimental results on industrial cell libraries demonstrate that our algorithm can yield an average of 12.6% improvement in the optimal clock period by combining clock skew optimization with gate sizing. For identical clock period, our algorithm can achieve an average of 11.3% area savings over a popular commercial synthesis tool.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"165 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129931138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its use is limited to a few high-end designs because of the high power/resource requirements and lack of automatic mesh synthesis tools. Most existing works on clock mesh (Restle et al., 2001) either deal with semi-custom design or perform optimizations on a given clock mesh. However, the problem of obtaining a good initial clock mesh has not been addressed. Similarly, the problem of achieving a smooth tradeoff between skew and power/resources has not been addressed adequately. In this work, we present MeshWorks, the first comprehensive automated framework for planning, synthesis and optimization of clock mesh networks with the objective of addressing the above issues. Experimental results suggest that our algorithms can achieve an additional reduction of 26% in buffer area, 19% in wirelength and 18% in power, compared to the recent work of Venkataraman et al., (2006) with similar worst case maximum frequency under variation.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115291707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a real-time embedded system, task arrival rate, inter-task arrival time, and data size to be transferred are not uniform over time. This is due to the partial re-configuration of an embedded system to cope with dynamic workload. In this context, the traditional application specific bus architectures may fail to meet the real-time constraints. Thus, to incorporate the random behavior of on-chip communication, this work proposes an approach to synthesize an on-chip bus architecture, which is robust for a given distributions of random tasks. The randomness of communication tasks is characterized by three main parameters which are the average task arrival rate, the average inter-task arrival time, and the data size. For synthesis, an on-chip bus requirement is guided by the worst-case performance need, while the dynamic voltage scaling technique is used to save energy when the workload is low or timing slack is high. This, in turn, results in an effective utilization of communication resources under variable workload.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121171734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By investigating the content, structure and usage of webpages, we observe that webpages represent a fundamentally different standard for performance evaluation of computers. We gathered data and modeled typical webpage content in order to characterize what is becoming a uniquely important design space. We then included this data in a set of simulations that also included models of a variety of scheduler types and heterogeneous multiprocessor architectures. To this, we proposed usage patterns that we believe typify the way people access the Internet on mobile devices. Considering only modern-day content in webpages, we found that specialized architectures can improve performance up to 70% over a homogeneous multiprocessor composed of general purpose processors with 25% additional improvement over the next best architecture when individual user preferences are also considered. This trend will increase as webpages become more differentiated in purpose and more complex in content. A new model of performance evaluation of computing must be developed, based upon webpage content and webpage access patterns.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"254 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133616206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These variations are of paramount concern as they deviate the performance of ICs from their designers' original intent. These deviations reduce the parametric yield and revenues from integrated circuit fabrication. In this paper we provide a complete treatment to the subject of within-die variations. We propose a scan-chain based system, vMeter, to extract within-die variations in an automated fashion. We implement our system in a sample of 90 nm chips, and collect the within-die variations data. Then we propose a number of novel statistical analysis techniques that accurately model the within-die variation trends and capture the spatial correlations. We propose the use of maximum-likelihood techniques to find the required parameters to fit the model to the data. The accuracy of our models is statistically verified through residual analysis and variograms. Using our successful modeling technique, we propose a procedure to generate synthetic within-die variation patterns that mimic, or imitate, real silicon data.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117327589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some state-of-the-art architectural synthesis flows adopt the distributed register (DR) architecture to cope with this increasing latency. The DR architecture, though allows multicycle communication, introduces extra overhead on interconnect resource. In this paper, we propose the regular distributed register - global resource sharing (RDR-GRS) architecture to enable global sharing of interconnects and registers. Based on the RDR-GRS architecture, we further define the channel and register allocation problem as a path scheduling problem of data transfers. A formal and flexible formulation of this problem is then presented and optimally solved by Integer Linear Programming (ILP). Experimental results show that RDR-GRS/ILP can averagely reduce 58% wires and 35% registers compared to the previous work.","PeriodicalId":277556,"journal":{"name":"2008 Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115265253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
